You know that volume is equal to length times width time height. You also know that the length of the carton is 2 2/3 feet, the width is 1 1/8 feet, and the height is 1 1/5 feet.
And to find the volume, you have to multiply the length, width, and height of the carton all together, and you will get 1 1/5 as your answer.
So, the volume of the carton is 1 1/5 cubic feet.

I hope this helps :)

Answer:

Option A)

The volume of carton is
3(3)/(5)\text{ cube feet}.

Explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Length of carton =


2\displaystyle(2)/(3)\text{ feet}

Width of carton =


1\displaystyle(1)/(8)\text{ feet}

Height of carton =


1\displaystyle(1)/(5)\text{ feet}

Formula:


\text{Volume of cone} = \text{Length}* \text{Width}* \text{Heigth}

Putting the values:


\text{Volume} = 2\displaystyle(2)/(3)* 1\displaystyle(1)/(8)* 1\displaystyle(1)/(5)\\\\= (8)/(3)* (9)/(8)* (6)/(5)\\\\=(432)/(120) = (18)/(5) = 3(3)/(5)\text{ cube feet}

Hence, the volume of carton is
3(3)/(5)\text{ cube feet}.
